Abstract
Histones play vital roles in chromatin function and gene transcription; however, they are very harmful in the intercellular space because they stimulate systemic inflammatory and toxic responses. Myelin basic protein (MBP) is the major protein of the axon myelin-proteolipid sheath. Antibodies-abzymes with various catalytic activities are specific features of some autoimmune diseases. IgGs against individual histones (H2A, H1, H2B, H3, and H4) and MBP were isolated from the blood of experimental-autoimmune-encephalomyelitis-prone C57BL/6 mice by several affinity chromatographies. These Abs-abzymes corresponded to various stages of EAE development: spontaneous EAE, MOG, and DNA-histones accelerated the onset, acute, and remission stages. IgGs-abzymes against MBP and five individual histones showed unusual polyreactivity in the complex formation and enzymatic cross-reactivity in the specific hydrolysis of the H2A histone. All the IgGs of 3-month-old mice (zero time) against MBP and individual histones demonstrated from 4 to 35 different H2A hydrolysis sites. The spontaneous development of EAE over 60 days led to a significant change in the type and number of H2A histone hydrolysis sites by IgGs against five histones and MBP. Mice treatment with MOG and the DNA-histone complex changed the type and number of H2A hydrolysis sites compared to zero time. The minimum number (4) of different H2A hydrolysis sites was found for IgGs against H2A (zero time), while the maximum (35) for anti-H2B IgGs (60 days after mice treatment with DNA-histone complex). Overall, it was first demonstrated that at different stages of EAE evolution, IgGs-abzymes against individual histones and MBP could significantly differ in the number and type of specific sites of H2A hydrolysis. The possible reasons for the catalytic cross-reactivity and great differences in the number and type of histone H2A cleavage sites were analyzed.

Abstract
Histones have vital roles in chromatin functioning and gene transcription. At the same time, they are pernicious in intercellular space because they stimulate systemic inflammatory and toxic responses. Myelin basic protein (MBP) is the major protein of the axon myelin–proteolipid sheath. Antibody-abzymes with various catalytic activities are specific features of some autoimmune diseases. IgGs against five individual histones (H2B, H1, H2A, H3, and H4) and MBP were isolated from the blood of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis-prone C57BL/6 mice by affinity chromatography. Abzymes corresponding to various stages of EAE development, including spontaneous EAE, myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein (MOG)- and DNA-histone complex-accelerated onset, as well as acute and remission stages, were analyzed. IgG-abzymes against MBP and five individual histones showed unusual polyreactivity in complex formation and enzymatic cross-reactivity in the specific hydrolysis of H2B histone. All IgGs against MBP and individual histones in 3-month-old mice (zero time) demonstrated from 4 to 11 different H2B hydrolysis sites. Spontaneous development of EAE during 60 days led to a significant change in the type and number of H2B hydrolysis sites by IgGs against the five histones and MBP. Mouse treatment with MOG and DNA-histone complex changed the type and number of H2B hydrolysis sites compared to zero time. The minimum number (3) of different H2B hydrolysis sites was found for IgGs against H3 20 days after mouse immunization with DNA-histone complex, whereas the maximum number (33) for anti-H2B IgGs was found 60 days after mouse treatment with DNA-histone complex. Overall, this is the first study to demonstrate that at different stages of EAE evolution, IgG-abzymes against five individual histones and MBP could significantly differ in the specific sites and number of H2B hydrolysis sites. Possible reasons for the catalytic cross-reactivity and significant differences in the number and type of histone H2B cleavage sites were analyzed.

Abstract
Histones have a specific key role in the remodeling of chromatin and gene transcription. In the blood, free histones are damage-connected proteins. Myelin basic protein (MBP) is the major component of the myelin-proteolipid sheath of axons. Antibodies possessing enzymatic activities (abzymes, ABZs) are the specific features of several autoimmune pathologies. IgGs against five histones, MBP, and DNA were obtained from the sera of multiple sclerosis (MS) patients using several affinity chromatographies. The sites of H3 histone splitting by Abs against five individual histones, MBP, and DNA were revealed by MALDI mass spectrometry. It was shown that the number of H3 splitting sites by IgGs against five various histones is different (number of sites): H3 (11), H1 (14), H2A (11), H4 (17), MBP (22), and DNA (29). IgGs against five different histones hydrolyze H3 at different sites, and only a few them coincide. The main reason for the enzymatic cross-reactivity of Abs against H3 and four other histones, as well as MBP, might be the high level of these proteins’ homology. The effective hydrolysis of the H3 histone at 29 sites with IgGs against DNA can be explained by the formation of chimeric abzymes against hybrid antigenic determinants formed by different histones and MBP at the junction of these protein sequences with DNA. The active centers of such abzymes contain structural elements of canonical DNases and proteases. Since free histones are pernicious proteins, antibodies–ABZs against five histones, MBP, and DNA could have a negative role in the pathogenesis of MS and probably other various autoimmune diseases.

Abstract
Histones play vital roles in chromatin functioning and gene transcription, but in intercellular space, they are harmful due to stimulating systemic inflammatory and toxic responses. Myelin basic protein (MBP) is the most important protein of the axon myelin–proteolipid sheath. Antibodies-abzymes with different catalytic activities are critical and specific features of some autoimmune diseases. Five IgG preparations against histones (H4, H1, H2A, H2B, and H3) and against MBP corresponding to different spontaneous, MOG (myelin oligodendrocyte glycoprotein of mice), and DNA–histones that accelerated onset, acute, and remission stages of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis (EAE; model of human multiple sclerosis) development were obtained from EAE-prone C57BL/6 mice by several affinity chromatographies. IgG-abzymes against five histones and MBP possess unusual polyreactivity in complexation and catalytic cross-reactivity in the hydrolysis of histone H4. IgGs against five histones and MBP corresponding to 3 month-old mice (zero time) in comparison with Abs corresponding to spontaneous development of EAE during 60 days differ in type and number of H4 sites for hydrolysis. Immunization of mice with MOG and DNA–histones complex results in an acceleration of EAE development associated with an increase in the activity of antibodies in H4 hydrolysis. Twenty days after mouse immunization with MOG or DNA–histones complex, the IgGs hydrolyze H4 at other additional sites compared to zero time. The maximum number of different sites of H4 hydrolysis was revealed for IgGs against five histones and MBP at 60 days after immunization of mice with MOG and DNA–histones. Overall, it first showed that at different stages of EAE development, abzymes could significantly differ in specific sites of H4 hydrolysis.

Abstract
Histones have a paramount role in chromatin remodeling and gene transcription. Free histones are damage-associated molecules in the blood; administration of histones to animals drives systemic inflammatory and toxic effects. Myelin basic protein (MBP) is the most crucial component of the axon myelin-proteolipid sheath. Antibodies-abzymes with different enzymatic activities are very toxic and an essential feature of some autoimmune diseases. Electrophoretically homogeneous IgGs against H1, H2A, H2B, H3, H4, MBP, and DNA were derived from sera of multiple sclerosis (MS) patients by several affinity chromatographies. Using MALDI-TOFF mass spectrometry, it was shown that IgGs against H2A split H2A at 12 sites; the number of H2A hydrolysis sites by antibodies against other antigens is different: H1 (19), H2B (11), H3 (15), H4 (9), MBP (10), and DNA (23), and they only partly match. Thus, the complex formation polyreactivity and the enzymatic cross-activity of pernicious humans IgGs against five histones, MBP, and DNA have been shown for the first time. The data obtained indicate that the formation of such polyspecific-polyreactive abzymes, whose single active center can recognize and hydrolyze different substrates, can occur due to the formation of antibodies against hybrid antigenic determinants consisting of several histone protein sequences. IgGs with high affinity for DNA with DNase and protease activities may be antibodies against DNA-histone complex antigenic determinants, including protein and DNA sequences. Polyreactive IgGs-abzymes against MBP, five histones, and DNA with extended cytotoxicity can play a very negative role in the pathogenesis of multiple sclerosis and probably other different diseases.

Abstract
As shown in many studies, one of the earliest statistically significant indicators of the development of many autoimmune diseases (ADs) is the appearance in the blood of antibodies with catalytic activities (abzymes) hydrolyzing different autoantigens. Antibodies-abzymes having different enzymatic activities are a specific and essential feature of some ADs. Most abzymes are harmful to humans. Free histones in the blood are damage-associated proteins, and their administration to animals drives systemic inflammatory and toxic effects. Myelin basic protein (MBP) is the most critical component of the axon myelin-proteolipid sheath. Hydrolysis of MBP by abzymes leads to the disruption of nerve impulses. Here, we analyzed the possible pathways for the formation of unusual antibodies and abzymes that exhibit polyspecificity in recognition during complex formation with partially related antigens and possess the ability to catalyze several different reactions for the first time. Using IgGs of HIV-infected and multiple sclerosis patients against five individual histones (H1–H4), MBP, and DNA, it was first shown that abzymes against each of these antigens effectively recognize and hydrolyze all three antigens: histones, MBP, and DNA. The data obtained indicate that the formation of such polyspecific abzymes, whose single active center can recognize different substrates and catalyze several reactions, can occur in two main ways. They can be antibodies against DNA–protein complex hybrid antigenic determinants containing proteins and nucleic sequences. Their formation may also be associated with the previously described phenomenon of IgG extensive LH half-molecule (containing one L-light and one H-heavy chains) exchange leading to H2L2 molecules containing HL halves with variable fragments recognizing different antigens.

Essential Protective Role of Catalytically Active Antibodies (Abzymes) with Redox Antioxidant Functions in Animals and Humans. Int J Mol Sci 2022; 23:ijms23073898.

Abstract
During the life of aerobic organisms, the oxygen resulting from numerous reactions is converted into reactive oxygen species (ROS). Many ROS are dangerous due to their high reactivity; they are strong oxidants, and react with various cell components, leading to their damage. To protect against ROS overproduction, enzymatic and non-enzymatic systems are evolved in aerobic cells. Several known non-enzymatic antioxidants have a relatively low specific antioxidant activity. Superoxide dismutases, catalase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione S-transferase, thioredoxin, and the peroxiredoxin families are the most important enzyme antioxidants. Artificial antibodies catalyzing redox reactions using different approaches have been created. During the past several decades, it has been shown that the blood and various biological fluids of humans and animals contain natural antibodies that catalyze different redox reactions, such as classical enzymes. This review, for the first time, summarizes data on existing non-enzymatic antioxidants, canonical enzymes, and artificial or natural antibodies (abzymes) with redox functions. Comparing abzymes with superoxide dismutase, catalase, peroxide-dependent peroxidase, and H2O2-independent oxidoreductase activities with the same activities as classical enzymes was carried out. The features of abzymes with the redox activities are described, including their exceptional diversity in the optimal pH values, dependency and independence on various metal ions, and the reaction rate constants for healthy donors and patients with different autoimmune diseases. The entire body of evidence indicates that abzymes with redox antioxidant activities existing in the blood for a long time compared to enzymes are an essential part of the protection system of humans and animals from oxidative stress.

Abstract
It is known that intranuclear histones can be pernicious after entering to the extracellular space. In addition, the immunization of animals with exogenous histones leads to systemic inflammatory and toxic reactions. Abzymes—autoantibodies with enzymatic activities—are the distinctive feature of autoimmune diseases and they can be especially dangerous to humans. Here, electrophoretically homogeneous IgGs were isolated from sera of patients with multiple sclerosis (MS) by chromatography on several affinity sorbents. We present evidence that sera of all MS patients contain autoantibodies against histones and 73% of IgGs purified from the sera of 59 MS patients efficiently hydrolyze from one to five histones: H1, H2a, H2b, H3, and H4. The relative average efficiency of the histones hydrolysis was ~3.9-fold higher than that for healthy donors. The relative average activity of IgGs depends on the type of MS and decreased approximately in the following order: debut of MS, secondary progressive multiple sclerosis, remitting multiple sclerosis, remittent progressive multiple sclerosis. Similar to proteolytic abzymes of patients with several autoimmune diseases, histone-hydrolyzing IgGs from MS patients were inhibited in the presence of specific inhibitors of serine and of metal-dependent proteases, but an unexpected significant inhibition of the activity by inhibitors of thiol-like and especially acidic proteases was observed. Since IgGs can efficiently hydrolyze histones, a negative role of abzymes in the development of MS cannot be excluded.

Abstract
Significant importance of autoimmune changes in the pathogenesis of schizophrenia (SCZ) is not established. Here, we present the first evidence that autoantibodies of 100% SCZ patients possess RNase activity: сCMP > poly(C) > poly(A) > yeast RNA. In addition, we have got an unexpected result: there was revealed site-specific hydrolysis of four known SCZ specific microRNAs (miR-137, miR-9-5p, miR-219-2-3p, and miR-219a-5p) playing an important role in the regulation of several genes functioning. Three major of cleavage sites are located in the microRNA loops or duplex parts directly articulated with the loops. RNase abzymes can contribute to decreasing of microRNAs effects on the functioning of numerous genes and the products of their transcription. Therefore, abzymes with RNase activity may be to some extent important for the development of schizophrenia. © 2018 IUBMB Life, 70(2):153-164, 2018.

Abstract
We present first evidence showing that some electrophoretically homogeneous IgGs from the sera of patients with schizophrenia (36.4%) and their Fab and F(ab)2 fragments as well as from healthy donors (33.3%) possess catalase activity. The relative catalase activity of IgGs from the sera of individual schizophrenia patients (and healthy donors) significantly varied from patient to patient, but the activity of IgGs from healthy donors is on average 15.8-fold lower than that for schizophrenia patients. After extensive dialysis of purified IgGs against EDTA chelating metal ions, the relative catalase activity of IgGs decreases on average approximately 2.5-3.7-fold; all IgGs possess metal-dependent and independent catalase activity. The addition of external Me2+ ions to dialyzed and non-dialyzed IgGs leads to a significant increase in their activity. The best activator of dialyzed and non-dialyzed IgGs is Co2+, the activation by Cu2+, Mn2+, and Ni2+ ions were rare and always lower than by Co2+. Every IgG preparation demonstrates several individual sets of very well expressed pH optima in the pH range from 4.0 to 9.5. These data speak for the individual repertoire of catalase IgGs in every person and an extreme diversity of abzymes in their pH optima and activation by different metal ions. It is known that antioxidant enzymes such as superoxide dismutases, catalases, and glutathione peroxidases represent critical defense mechanisms preventing oxidative modifications of DNA, proteins, and lipids. Catalase activity of human IgGs could probably also play a major role in the protection of organisms from oxidative stress and toxic compounds.
